| I know I'm probably going to get the whole "tanning beds cause cancer" speech but assuming I already am aware of that fact, are they bad for tattoos? Especially if they are still healing? |

| Yes, didn't your artist give you an aftercare sheet? Tanning (especially burning) can really damage your tattoo. Just don't do it, you don't need a tan that bad.... Oh yeah, they cause cancer too! |

All tanning will fade your tattoo. You should put sun block, Not sun screen, on your tattoos while out in the sun. I'm not sure if sun block helps in a tanning bed or not.
Edit:
You should use a self tanning lotion. It's alot healthier. |

| You should get tattooed from head to toe in a light brown ink. It will remove your need to get a tan AND fulfil your desire to a tattooed. Simple! |

I've always thought that if I could get the white space between my freckles filled in I would have an "alloverbodytan"
 Probably wouldn't work though |

| You could join your freckles up like a star map. You will be really popular with local astronomers. |
